When: Day 123, afternoon
What: Pimp My Raft.

The strains of Sloop John B ring out in the ears of the select few as you are called to the arena. Now, when you enter it, the Arena has been transformed into a beach again. In the middle, by the Judge's throne, there is a table with various piles of tools and other interesting items.

In the water, there stands six rafts, each with a sail corresponding to the team's color.

[TEAM CEPHEUS IS FAR TOO LAZY TO SHOOP

The roof of the little hut has a purple crown painted on it in Cepheus purple, alternating logs of the main part of the raft are likewise painted purple, beads are strung along the edges of the sail, and speakers are there for awesome mood music of Red's choice. Liberal and random application of LEDs also occurred.

Syaoran was beaded and Red was LED'd and thus match their raft. Hoorah!]

	[Pyxis' is splattered with red paint (it is ART NOUVEAU) and the entire thing has been glitter'd. LEDs light up the mast and fake jewels are glued on the roof of the hut thing. A teddy bear was taken but never made it to the raft because Dove would much rather cuddle it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I, I love the colourful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair

There's no trace of the original woodtone left on the raft; from the top of the mast to the bottom logs, it's been painted with silver paint. The plain purple sail has been painted with a green and blue peacock in full display, more silver adding touches to the eyes, beak, feet, and tips of the feathers.

I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air

Mounded upon the deck and the roof of the raft is a carpet of individual pieces of long, plush fake fur in the same peacock blue and green, each cut into the shape of a feather. They aren't loose; each has been glued to the base of the raft at just a single end, so that the rest of it can drift and ripple in the faint cave breeze.

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations

But the crowning touch, literally, is the speaker attached to the main mast. As the crooning strains of 'Good Vibrations' start, the LEDs pick up, lighting peacock's crest, eyes, wingtips, and every eye on its fanned tail with pulses of green and blue light that pulse in time with the music. Under the light, the wiring woven along the feathers' veins glints and shimmers. More lights scattered around the sail tips and the edges of the feather 'bed' pick up the pattern, reflecting on the water and turning the whole raft into a synchronized show of light and sound.

Good, good, good, good vibrations.
